 FAQ’s on AGSB Pre-registration and Registration for MBA Standard
and Middle Manager’s Program

Pre-Registration
Q. Why is there a need to establish a pre-registration system?

The pre-registration system aims to:

1. Improve the capacity of the School to project the classes to be offered for the incoming term or
trimester, and

schedules that reflect the preferences of the students during the pre-registration period.

period, subject to availability of slots.

Q. What if I pre-register to a particular course together with its pre-requisite course or pre-register to
more than 3 courses (overload)?

Students who anticipate these conditions may still pre-register but will need to file their request for
curricular exception or overload with the concerned department once the course offerings are posted.

Upon the approval of the request for curricular exceptions, the approved courses will be included in the
student’s enlistment. Students need to fill-out the Request for Direct Registration online form at the
Registrar Online Services portal. Approved requests will be processed via Direct Registration by the
Registrar’s Office as early as the start of the pre-registration period.

The Request for Overload form is also found at the Registrar Online Services portal. There are
declarations and conditions that the student needs to accept. Approved requests will be processed via
Direct Registration by the Registrar’s Office as early as the start of the pre-registration period.

Q. What happens to a course if there is a low turnout of pre-registrants?

A course with fewer than 10 enlistments is automatically dissolved. Our department secretaries will
contact each pre-registrant in those dissolved courses so that students will know their options and
decide on them before the Registration Period.

Q. Are my selected courses during Pre-registration saved until the Registration period?

Yes, except for dissolved courses.

Q. I’m experiencing technical difficulties, whom should I contact?

newly created classes from waitlisted students. It will also list the number of open slots available for

Those who availed of pre-registration enlistment will see their registered courses in the Student Access
Module, under the Registration tab. Your registered courses are listed under the Registered Subjects
section. From there, students can click Assess to view their assessment and pay thru any of the
payment channels available. The only time an enlistment will be missing is when the course was
dissolved.

Q. I forgot to pre-register, can I still register for a course?

Yes. You can still register for courses during the Registration Period, subject to slot availability. However,
there might not be slots that are still open for the courses you intend to take. Students should therefore

choice.

Yes. A student may add, remove or change any enlistment during the registration period, subject to
availability of slots.
